Type genus.

Oberthueria Kirby, 1892

Diagnosis.

Members of this tribe share the following characters: 1) forewings long and narrow; 2) labial palpi of moderate length, about 2/3 of the vertical diameter of the compound eye; 3) distal half of antenna devoid of well-developed rami (Figure 2 View Figure 2 ). In addition, the larvae also bear some distinct characters, such as a hairless body, moderately wider expansion of the thoracic tergites, and an extremely long anal horn (Figure 1 View Figure 1 : Oberthueria ).

Notes.

Zolotuhin (2007) treated Promustilia as a subgenus of Mustilizans , before Wang et al. (2015) raised it to full genus level when they described Promustilia yajiangensis . Although P. yajiangensis is here transferred to Mustilizans to ensure monophyly of that genus, Promustilia is retained as a distinct genus as the type species, Mustilizans (Promustilia) andracoides , was not included in this study. If not even synonymous, Mustilizans and Promustilia are closely related, and Promustilia is here included in Oberthueriini stat. rev..
